Brutus

User friendly URLs

Registered by Alexey Torkhov

1) URLs should be bookmarkable and pastable. This is very, very essential. It should properly manage of browser history (this probably should go in separate blueprint). I. e. buttons Back, Forward and Reload should work properly.
Also this would allow to provide fallback for browsers without JS - put link url in href attrib and javascript in onclick handler.

I saw a lib from google to manage the history.

2) URLs should be simplier. I. e. something like brutus.worldforge.org/ember for latest msgs in #ember. This could be achieved with use of mod_rewrite. Detailed URL scheme should be developed and discussed.

Whiteboard

I have a rough outline for replacing the javascript mechanisms with direct calls to the service which should make most of this request a given. I can handle the .htaccess stuff myself but I would like some help with replacing the calls and amending the methods to produce renderables directly.
